Poem on Aaqib Javed

Aaqib Javed on the pitch,

Is 16 and has an itch,

He wants to make himself stay,

And become an encouragement for everyone coming this way,

He couldn't prove himself today,

But time flew and 3 years later came another day,

He was bowling against India's team,

That is when he showed his light beam.

He bowled a leg-by-wicket out,

Which made the batsman pout,

Next came Mohammed Azzurudin who was confident and without a doubt

But also got a leg-by-wicket out,

After him came Master Blaster,

But he got out even faster,

Aaqib had made a new record,

He became Pakistan's new sword,

Youngest ODI hatrick,

So he bacame extraordinary very quick!!!
